1956 Map of Columbus East

USGS Topo · Published 1957

About this map

Columbus serves as the focal point for this mid-1950s survey of the Stillwater Valley, positioned along the northern bank of the Yellowstone River. The landscape is defined by the vital infrastructure of the era, including the Northern Pacific railroad corridor and the extensive Columbus Water Users Association Ditch, which follows the river's contours to support local agriculture. The map captures the town's early aviation facilities at the Landing Field and traces the intricate network of drainage systems like Keyser Creek and Horse Creek that carve through the rising benchlands. A solitary Grave noted south of the main settlement provides a specific point of interest for genealogists, while high points like VABM Herder 4698 offer a perspective on the terrain's elevation changes north of the river valley.
